Morning Activities -

Extra garbage and blue box materials taken to road

   from basement cleaning,

.5 km trail walk with Marigold,

Found Septimus dead in the stall when I got to the barn,

Had Ryan help load Septimus into the sled

   and pull him to where I started digging a grave,

Spent a good 3 hours digging a grave,

I wanted it deep enough that animals would not dig down to him,

Took a lot of my energy,

Afternoon Activities -

Slept in my lazy boy chair for over an hour,

Attempted a walk but only did 3 slow km

   as I was very tired from the morning activity,

Fleur-Ange & I went out for supper as we were

   both too tired to cook,

Almost dark as we took Marigold out

   for her “afternoon” walk,
